Lyrically Speaking - 2/1/18
Posted: Thu Feb 01, 2018 5:34 am
Sorry, I don't have much time to chat today. I'm preparing for a flood without any assistance from FEMA. Anyway, it's Theme Thursday, and I'll bet you'd never guess the theme of today's game if you had forty days and forty nights to think about it while you're busy shoveling a metric fuckton of animal shit out the windows. We're about to set off now..... where are those damned unicorns anyway?
1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist, 3 points for the theme...
1. Well I don't really know her
I only know her name
But she crawls under your skin
You're never quite the same
2. Don't you understand, what I'm trying to say?
Can't you see the fear that I'm feeling today?
If the button is pushed, there's no running away,
There'll be noone to save with the world in a grave
3. And when I get the paper
I read it through and through
And my girl never fails to say
If there is any work for me
4. At break of day when that man drove away I was waiting
I crossed the street to her house and she opened the door
She stood there laughing
I felt the knife in my hand and she laughed no more
5. Empty dreams can only dissapoint
in a room behind your smile
but don't give up,
don't give up
you can be lucky in love
6. So I'm sailing for tomorrow
My dreams are a dyin'.
And my love is an anchor tied to you
Tied with a silver chain.
7. Ya better come inside when you're ready to
But no chance if ya don't wanna dance
You're like four letter words when you're ready to
But then you won't 'cos you know that you can
8. If you think I'll sit around while you chip away my brain
Listen, I ain't fooling and you'd better think again
Out there is a fortune waiting to be had
If you think I'll let it go, you're mad
9. When vague desire is the fire in the eyes of chicks
Whose sickness is the games they play
And when the masquerade is played and neighbor folks make jokes
As who is most to blame today
10. I saw the decade in, when it seemed
the world could change at the blink of an eye
And if anything
then there's your sign of the times
11. Nightshades on a warning
Give me strength at least give me a light
Give me anything even sympathy
There's a chance you could be right
12. Well, I`m no angel, now I`ll admit
I`ve made a few bad moves I should regret
I hurt you once or so you said
Just one more chance is all you get
